Krystal quickly looked at Kai and realized that he had not noticed Old Master Lee and the rest. Her expression became even calmer.
Wen Wang said in a low voice, “Isn’t that Elder Zhu?”
“Master Wen, what did you say?” Kai asked.
“I think I just saw an important senior.”
Wen Wang looked over eagerly, as did Kai. “A master from the violin world? How about we pay him a visit?”
Krystal was very surprised. “Master Wen, are you sure? Which one is he?”
“That Elder Zhu…” Wen Wang said softly. He seemed to have thought of something and did not say much.
Krystal was slightly shocked. Was he referring to Zhu Junrong? How was that possible? Zhu Junrong was just an ordinary teacher from a small town. He was not a good person. Most importantly, he was blind. How could he be a master? This was definitely impossible!
Seeing that Kai still had the intention of going over, Krystal said, “Brother Kai, Jennie’s birthday party is over there.”
“She’s over there.” Kai paused as he recalled Jennie’s beautiful figure and her fair and charming face.
It turned out that Jennie was in the main hall.
He had heard that Jennie’s elder brother, Sehun, was doing quite well. He had both reputation and prestige. It was no wonder that he was able to book the main hall that was usually so difficult to get. Who else would appear at her party today?
Krystal looked at him in a daze and said, “Brother Kai? Brother Kai?”
“It’s alright, go on. You can go in with Master Wen first. Krystal and I will be waiting for my other friends here.”Kai retracted his thoughts. After all, it was Krystal’s birthday today. He could not think too much about Jennie.
“Do you have any other friends coming?” Krystal asked in anticipation, completely forgetting the shock that Wen Wang’s words had brought.
The Chus’ friends were either rich or noble. Kai’s own friends in the entertainment industry also held high status. No matter who he knew, they were all very valuable.
The surprise Kai was giving her today was really too much!
“Yes, I have a few close friends with high statuses. They will be coming to support you today,” Kai said gently, “You’re with me, but you can’t be openly seen by others. It’s been hard on you. Wait for me. When the time comes, I will definitely let everyone in the world know about you.”
“Brother Kai, you’re the best.”

Jennie was sitting in the main hall. When she saw Old Master Lee enter, she stood up and walked towards him. “Grandpa.”
“Ah.” Old Master Lee made an amiable sound. “I didn’t see you around today, but it looks like my granddaughter has become even prettier. Come, this is Teacher Zhu. He teaches the violin. You know him.”
“Hello, Teacher Zhu.” Jennie greeted him politely and shook his hand.
“Don’t call me Teacher Zhu. You should call me Grandpa Zhu.”
“I wish you all the best, Grandpa.” Jennie immediately corrected herself.
“Alright, alright, alright.” Zhu Junrong smiled. “Jennie, I still have something to tell you…”
So-yeon knew that he was going to bring up the same old topic again. She smiled and said, “Uncle Zhu, there are a few old friends over there. Why don’t we go over and greet them first? Today is Jennie’s birthday. Wait for her to finish her work today. We’ll talk about other things when she has time.”
He was dragged away by his wife.
Jennie could not help but smile. “Grandpa, I wonder what this Grandpa Zhu is going to say?”
Seeing that Jennie’s face was full of affection, Old Master Lee was in a good mood. “He’s a zither fanatic, looking for students all day long. He can’t wait to find a few good ones. He saw the video of you playing the violin and insisted on finding you to train. Your parents and I haven’t agreed yet.”
“Well, I wish you the best, Grandpa.” Jennie did not take it to heart. Since he was a zither fanatic, there must be many people who wanted to be his disciple. He must be taking her in only on account of the Lee family, right?
Jennie seemed to recall that he had taught Krystal before.
Sehun walked over. “Jennie, your friends are here.”
Jennie looked over and saw a few old friends. After Ye Ke and Wang Boyan’s college entrance examination, their dressing and demeanor had become more mature.
Ye Ke was a little reserved at first, but when she saw Jennie, she rushed over excitedly and said loudly, “Happy birthday, Jennie.”
“I brought you a present.” Wang Boyan handed the item over.
“Thank you.” Jennie accepted it. “I thought you guys were attending summer camp in America and couldn’t make it back in time.”
“I’d already predicted your birthday and planned to rush back at this time. Even if you hadn’t invited me, I would have done it myself,” Ye Ke said proudly.
Jennie smiled. The corners of her lips curled up into a bright and valiant smile. “It’s a good thing that I invited you. Otherwise, you would have missed out on me.”
The three of them chatted and laughed for a while more. When Ye Ke saw that her other friends had come, she pulled Wang Boyan away and sat to one side obediently.
The person who came this time was Irene.
Ever since she left ‘Ultimate Singer Songwriter’, although she was not as popular as Jennie, her career had been stable and her business activities were stable.
After overcoming the problem of appearing on stage in public, her stage presence had also improved greatly. Her career could be said to be going smoothly.
Meeting again now, she was accompanied by a dutiful manager who took care of everything for her.
Although they had not seen each other since the competition, So-yeon took off her sunglasses the moment she saw Jennie and smiled like a little girl. “Little Stone!” She opened her arms and hugged Jennie. “I missed you so much.”
“Me too.”
“I finally have the chance to see you. You have no idea how much I missed you.”
“If you miss me in the future, look for me on WeChat.”
How could Jennie not know why she had not been looking for her recently?
Irene had signed a contract very quickly after the competition. Being in fourth place, she did not sign with Diamond Music, but with another company.
If Irene came to look for her, she would be able to gain a lot of popularity. That was what her company thought. They urged her to look for Jennie and act as her best friend so that they could act in sister roles, because of this, not only had Irene not openly looked for Jennie, she had even avoided arousing suspicion on Weibo.
The more she cared about this relationship, the more she was afraid of tarnishing it.
Jennie understood her concerns and had heard about Irene from Yao Jiahong.
Irene was really treating her as a friend.

Krystal and Kai were waiting outside. Before Kai’s friends arrived, they saw a few people from the entertainment industry.. First came Bae Irene, then Yu Guannan.
